Gotta be Thursday on the tour too, they are in the UK around that time with Rise Against and they are doing the US Taste of Chaos as well.

There's never ever any Welsh dates any where these days, I'm sure everyones racist towards the Welsh or something.

hey look, no norwich, fucking surprise that is! also, it was sooo much better last year, atreyu and story of the year tore that shit up! and they played norwich cos theyre not asses!

Fair enough if they don't come to your country, that's a bit shit, but people need to stop moaning about tours never hitting their city.

I have to travel to London, at least to go to gigs, n that takes me a minimum of 3hrs, and costs me around £40 in travel alone.

Yes it sucks, but get over it!

N no1 can say any year was better than another year, cos at the end of the day, its all down to personal opinions and whether you like the bands on the bill or not. They'll never be able to please everyone, it may be that you preferred last yr, but someone else might prefer last yr. Again, get over it ppl!

We should just be grateful that these promoters take the time to organise these tours and that the bands take the time to come all this way to play for us.

There had better be more dates. Or are the Taste of Chaos organisers getting too fucking self-important to come to smaller towns anymore.

Because Jesper Stromblad's hobby is collecting weird and wonderful hubcaps, and he knows if he was to set foot in Merseydive, you Scousers would nick them.

according the wikipedia.
joining them is escape the fate and the blackout?
not too sure about that.

Posted by matty | August 10, 2009 1:25 PM | Reply to this

In Flames should headline, but they are in the German part, so thats fair. Hers to hoping GOOD support, not someshitty Metalcore/Screamo band, mabye Shadows fall, they have a gap in their US tour (Yes im well aware that KSE & SF are both Metalcore, but the only GOOD Metalcore) Bring on the Scandinvian METAL!

Blabbermouth says the other bands are gonna be between the buried and me and protest the hero.
when did taste of chaos get so metal?

Posted by Andy | August 12, 2009 12:14 PM | Reply to this

I THINK THE VENGA BOYS SHOULD PLAY, AND THEY SHOULD COME TO EMERDALE!

Posted by max | August 12, 2009 3:33 PM | Reply to this

Taste of Chaos this year is going to be effing immense this year. Purely and simply because they've already announced two AWESOME bands.

I'm not really too bothered who else is playing this year; i'd pay £20 to see Killswitch Engage or In Flames ON THEIR OWN.

wish they were playing Cardiff mind. Ahh well. Still definitely gonna see them ^__^
